6 Lecture 1 Overview of GIS 6
7 As of February 2006, Geotechnologies is listed by the U.S. Department of Labor as one of the three most important emerging and evolving fields," along with Biotechnology and Nanotechnology Geotechnologies have turned computer mapping into a powerful decision- making tool! 7
8 Global Positioning Systems (GPS) a system of earth-orbiting satellites which can provide precise (100 meter to sub-cm.) location on the earth s s surface (in lat/long coordinates or equiv.) Remote Sensing (RS) use of satellites or aircraft to capture information about the earth s s surface Geographic Information Systems (GIS) at a minimum, comprises a capability for input, storage, manipulation and output of geographic information GPS and RS are sources of input data for a GIS. What is a GIS? 8

10 Where did GIS come from? GIS is built upon knowledge from geography, cartography, computer science, Information Systems, and mathematics Geographic Information Science is a new interdisciplinary field built out of the use and theory of GIS 10
11 Knowledge Base for GIS Computer Science/IS graphics visualization database system administration security Geography and related: cartography geodesy photogrammetry landforms spatial statistics. GIS Application Area: public admin. planning geology mineral exploration forestry site selection marketing civil engineering criminal justice surveying The convergence of technological fields and traditional disciplines. Defining GIS Different definitions of a GIS have evolved in different areas and disciplines All GIS definitions recognize that spatial data are unique because they are linked to maps (Space matters!) A GIS at least consists of a database, map information, and a computer-based link between them 11
12 GIS Definition A A geographic information system is a computer-based information system that enables capture, modeling, storage, retrieval, sharing, manipulation, analysis, and presentation of geographically referenced data (Worboys and Duckham, 2004, p.2). Why does GIS Matter? Almost everything happens somewhere Knowing where some things happen is critically important Position of country boundaries Location of hospitals Routing delivery vehicles Management of forest stands Allocation of funds for sea defenses GIS is a special class of information systems that keeps track not only of events, activities, and things, but also of where these events, activities, and things happen or exist 12
13 Why Study GIS? 80% of local government activities estimated to be geographically based plats, zoning, public works (streets, water supply, sewers), garbage collection, land ownership and valuation a significant portion of state government has a geographical component natural resource management highways and transportation businesses use GIS for a very wide array of applications retail site selection & customer analysis logistics: vehicle tracking & routing natural resource exploration (petroleum, etc.) precision agriculture civil engineering and construction scientific research employs GIS geography, geology, botany anthropology, sociology, economics, political science Epidemiology, criminology Five Ms of Applied GIS Mapping Measuring Monitoring Modeling Managing 13
14 Examples of Applied GIS Urban Planning, Management & Policy Zoning, subdivision planning Land acquisition Economic development Code enforcement Housing renovation programs Emergency response Crime analysis Tax assessment Environmental Sciences Monitoring environmental risk Modeling stormwater runoff Management of watersheds, floodplains, wetlands, forests, aquifers Environmental Impact Analysis Hazardous or toxic facility siting Groundwater modeling and contamination tracking Political Science Redistricting Analysis of election results Predictive modeling Civil Engineering/Utility Locating underground facilities Designing alignment for freeways, transit Coordination of infrastructure maintenance Business Demographic Analysis Market Penetration/ Share Analysis Site Selection Education Administration Attendance Area Maintenance Enrollment Projections School Bus Routing Real Estate Neighborhood land prices Traffic Impact Analysis Determination of Highest and Best Use Health Care Epidemiology Needs Analysis Service Inventory Brief History of GIS s Innovation First GIS Canada Land Inventory DIME US Bureau of Census Harvard Laboratory for Computer Graphics Major vendors started (e.g. ESRI, Intergraph) Landsat satellite launched Key academic conferences (e.g. AutoCarto) 14
15 Brief History of GIS 1980s Commercialization Commercial GIS software (e.g. ArcInfo) First GIS textbooks First global data sets Clinton Executive Order 2000s Exploitation Internet becomes major deliver vehicle More than 1 million active users 15
16 Sources of Information on GIS The amount of information available about GIS can be overwhelming Sources of GIS information include journals and magazines, books, professional societies, the World Wide Web, and conferences GIS has Web Home pages, network conference groups, professional organizations, and user groups Most colleges and universities now offer GIS classes in geography departments GIS Resources: Conferences 16
